Amanda Li Hope
She / Her
Goldsmith Amanda Li Hope creates clean, precise and compelling handcrafted ethical fine jewellery from her Hatton Garden studio in London. One of the first Fairtrade and Fairmined Gold licensees, as a bench jeweller she combines her values with her background as an architect; responsibly sourced materials, meticulous attention to detail and expert artisanship define each piece of her jewellery.
Amanda believes a piece of jewellery should embody a story. She works openly and in close collaboration with her clients and offers a welcoming and inclusive experience both in person and remotely. Together, you can create a unique design based on your personality and style, capturing your narrative and the significance of the occasion being marked. Positive impact, the provenance of materials and skilled production is paramount; each piece is crafted from scratch by Amanda, from hand alloying her own metals to the application of texture and final finish.
